High transmittance and low resistance index matched transparent conducting oxide (IMTCO) coated glass was prepared and characterized. IMTCO was deposited by RF magnetron sputtering with the thickness of 15nm and 90nm thick anti-reflection layer was evaporated. To modify surface to hydrophilic, in-situ plasma treatment was also performed. IMTCO coated glass exhibited 96.6% of transmittance in the wavelength range of 400~700nm which is relatively high value compared to commercially available IMTCO glass. The sheet resistance uniformity was measured to be 1.53%.

Transparent film heaters employing silver nanowires (Ag NWs) have attracted increasing attention because of their widespread applications. However, the low thermal resistance of Ag NWs limits the maximum operating temperature of the Ag NW film heater. In this study, Ag NW film heaters with high mechanical and thermal stability were successfully developed. The thermal power-out characteristics of the Ag NW heaters were investigated as a function of the Ag NW density. The results revealed that the prepared flexible Ag NW heater possessed high thermal stability over $190^{\circ}C$ owing to ZnO encapsulation. This indicates that the Ag NW film with excellent thermal stability have remarkably high potential for use as electrodes in film heaters operating at high temperatures.

We report the field emission characteristics of transparent single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) film printed using an inkjet. Pure SWNTs dispersed in dimethylformamide were printed in a transparent layer on indium-tin oxide-coated glass and annealed at $350^{\circ}C$. After taping treatment, SWNTs were oriented vertically on the substrate. The front and the back of the fabricated device produced simultaneous emissions of identical quality. In addition, inkjet printing directly achieved a patterned emission, without a secondary pattern process. This method allows simple fabrication using only SWNTs, without the use of other additives.

1D core-shell nanostructures have attracted great attention due to their enhanced physical and chemical properties. Specifically, oriented single-crystalline $TiO_2$ nanorods or nanowires on a transparent conductive substrate would be more desirable as the building core backbone. However, a facile approach to produce such structure-based hybrids is highly demanded. In this study, a three-step hydrothermal method was developed to grow NiMn-layered double hydroxide-decorated $TiO_2$/carbon core-shell nanorod arrays on transparent conductive fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates. XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS and Raman were used to analyze the obtained samples. The in-situ fabricated hybrid nanostructured materials are expected to be applicable for photoelectrode working in water splitting.

We propose the Poynting vector analysis of the air mode in a top-emitting organic light-emitting diode (OLED) by combining the transfer matrix method and dipole source term. The spatial profiles of the time-averaged optical power flow of the air mode are calculated inside and outside the multilayer structure of the OLED with respect to the thickness of the semi-transparent top cathode and capping layer (CPL). We elucidate how the micro-cavity effect controlled by the thickness variation of the semi-transparent top cathode or CPL affects the internal optical power and absorption loss inside the OLED multilayer and the external optical power coupled into the air. When the calculated absorption loss and external power obtained by the proposed Poynting vector and currently-used point dipole models are compared, two calculation results are identical, which demonstrates the validity of the two models.

Transparent conducting ZnO/Ti/ZnO tri-layer films deposited on glass substrate with DC and RF magnetron sputtering were rapid thermal annealed at 150, 300 and 450℃ for 5 minutes and then effect of annealing temperature on the structural and optoelectronics properties of the films were investigated. The structural properties are strongly related to annealing temperature and the largest grain size is observed in the films annealed at 450℃. The electrical resistivity also decreases as low as 7.7 × 10^-4 Ωcm. The visible transmittance also depends on the annealing temperature. The films annealed at 450℃ show a higher transmittance of 80.6% in this study.

In this study, short-circuit preventive layer (blocking layer) was deposited between conductive transparent electrode and porous $TiO_2$ film in the DSSCs. As blocking layer, we selected the metal-oxide such as $TiO_2$, $Nb_2O_5$ and ZnO. The sheet resistance with each different blocking layers were 18 ${\Omega}/sq.$ for the $TiO_2$, 10 ${\Omega}/sq.$ for the $Nb_2O_5$ and 8 ${\Omega}/sq.$ for the ZnO, while the RMS (Root Mean Square) roughness value of DSSCs were 39.61 nm for the $TiO_2$, 41.84 nm for the $Nb_2O_5$ and 36.14 nm for the ZnO respectively. From the results of photocurrent-voltage curves, a sputtered $Nb_2O_5$ blocking layer showed higher performance on 2.64% of photo-electrochemical properties. The maximum of conversion efficiency which was achieved under 1 sun irradiation by depositing the blocking layer increased up to 0.56%.

Stainless steel (SS) mesh was used to fabricate photoelectrode for flexible dye-seisitzed solar cells (DSSCs) in order to evaluate them as replacements for more expensive transparent conductive oxide(TCO). We fabricated the DSSCs with new type of photoelectrode, which consisted of flexible SS mesh coated with 100 nm thickness titanium (Ti) protective layer deposited using electron-beam deposition system. SS mesh DSSCs with protective layer showed higher efficiency than those without a protective layer. The best cell property in the present study showed the open circuit voltage (Voc) of 0.608 V, short-circuit current density (Jsc) of $5.73mA\;cm^{-2}$, fill factor (FF) of 65.13%, and efficiency (${\eta}$) of 2.44%. Compared with SS mesh based on DSSCs (1.66%), solar conversion of SS mesh based on DSSCs with protective layer improved about 47%.

The structures of the fertilized egg envelope in three species of cichlidae, golden severum (Cichlasoma severum var.), convic cichlid (Cichlasoma nigrofasciatum) and discus (Symphysodon aequifasciatus) were investigated by routine light and electron microscopies. The fertilized eggs of all three species were of the non-transparent, ellipsoidal, adhesive and non-floted type. The egg envelopes have a single micropyle, which is thought to the pathway of sperm in the area of the animal pole. In golden severum, an outer surface of egg envelope was covered by a reticular layer, that of convic cichlid was covered by an amorphous reticular layer and that of discus was covered by a branched reticular layer. The fertilized egg envelopes consisted of two distinct layers, an adhesive outer layer and an inner layer, consisted of lamellae alternating with interlamellae of lower electron density, in all three species; an inner layer of golden severum was $15\sim17$ layers, that of convic cichlid was $14\sim16$ layers, and that of discus was $18\sim19$ layers.

Metallic nanostructures have great potential for bio-chemical sensor applications due to the excitation of localized surface plasmon and its sensitive response to environmental change. Unlike the commonly explored absorption-based sensing, the optical scattering provides single particle detection scheme. For the localized surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy, the metallic nanostructures with controlled shape and size have been usually fabricated on adhesion-layer pre-coated transparent glass substrates. In this study, we calculated the optical scattering properties of plasmonic Au nanodisc using a discrete dipole approximation method and analyzed the effect of adhesion layer on them. Our result also indicates that there is a trade-off between the surface plasmon damping and the capability of supporting nanostructures in determining the optimal thickness of adhesion layer. Marginal thickness of Ti adhesion layer for supporting Au nanostructures fabricated on a silica glass substrate was experimentally analyzed by an adhesion strength test using a nano-indentation technique.
